1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Heart failure (HF) imposes a significant burden on public health, affecting over 56.19 million people worldwide. Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction may occur in HF patients due to various factors, including adverse interventricular interactions, ischemic heart disease, and HF-correlated pulmonary hypertension. Additionally, the deterioration of RV function plays a critical role in the progression of HF, regardless of left ventricular (LV) systolic function, suggesting an unfavorable outcome. Throughout the progression of HF and increasing afterload, the right ventricle undergoes adaptive remodeling to preserve adequate cardiac output. Right ventricular-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling integrates the dynamic adaptation of RV systolic function to afterload and has been considered a stronger predictor of HF prognosis than other conventional parameters. Thus, accurate evaluations of RV-PA coupling are significant in the clinical diagnosis and management of HF patients, along with prognostic speculation. In this review, we summarize the basic principles and measurements of RV-PA coupling and focus on its clinical significance across each subtype of HF.
